High Morphological Differentiation in Crown Architecture Contrasts with Low Population Genetic Structure of German Norway Spruce Stands

High elevation sites in the low mountain ranges in Germany are naturally covered by Norway spruce (<i>Picea abies</i> (Karst.) L.) stands. Historically, large scale anthropogenic range expansion starting in the mid to late 18th century had a huge impact on the forest composition througho...
